Efficacy and Tolerability of Rimegepant for the Prevention of Migraine in Adults With History of Inadequate Response to Oral Preventive Medications

Mean Change From OP in the Number of Migraine Days Per Month in the Last 4 Weeks (Weeks 9 to 12) of the DBT Phase

A migraine day was defined as any calendar day in which participant (1) had a qualified migraine headache or (2) took acute migraine-specific medication (i.e., triptan, ergotamine, lasmiditan, or ubrogepant) to treat headache or aura. A qualified migraine headache was defined as a migraine with or without aura, lasting for \>=30 minutes, met criteria: \>=2 of pain features: unilateral location; pulsating quality (throbbing); moderate or severe pain intensity; aggravation by or causing avoidance of routine physical activity (e.g., walking or climbing stairs) or \>=1 of associated symptoms: nausea and/or vomiting; photophobia and phonophobia. Number of migraine days per month were prorated to 28 days.

Time frame: Observation phase (28 days prior to randomization), Week 9 to Week 12 of the DBT phase

Mean Change From Baseline in the Migraine-Specific Quality-of-Life Questionnaire (MSQ) Version 2.1 Restrictive Role Function Domain Score at Week 12 of the DBT Phase

MSQ version 2.1 was a self-administered, 14-item instrument validated in 3 domains: role function-restrictive (7 items), role function-preventive (4 items), emotional function (3 items). The restrictive role function domain consisted of 7 items that described how migraine limited one's daily social and work-related activities. Each item was scored on a 6-point scale ranging from 1 to 6, where "1: none of the time," "2: a little bit of the time," "3: some of the time," "4: a good bit of the time," "5: most of the time," and "6: all of the time,". Item scores were recoded using (7 - original score). Raw dimension scores for restrictive role function domain were computed as a sum of recoded item scores and rescaled from a 0 to 100 scale such that lower score (0) indicated poor quality of life and higher scores (100) indicated better quality of life.

Time frame: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 12 of the DBT phase

Mean Change From Baseline in the Migraine Interictal Burden Scale (MIBS) Score at Week 12 of the DBT Phase

MIBS was a 4-item self-administered questionnaire that measures: impairment in work or school, impairment in family and social life, difficulty making plans or commitments, and emotional/affective and cognitive distress. Each item was rated on a 6-point scale as: don't know/ not applicable; never; rarely; some of the time; much of the time; most or all of the time. The MIBS score was the weighted sum of the item scores and ranged from 0 to 12. Higher scores indicated a greater impact of headaches on the participant's life between headache attacks.

Number of Participants With Any Adverse Events (AEs) by Worst Intensity in the DBT Phase.

An AE was defined as any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a pre-existing medical condition in a participant or clinical investigation participant administered an investigational (medicinal) product and that did not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. AE intensity included mild, moderate and severe, where Mild: usually transient and required only minimal treatment or therapeutic intervention. Event did not generally interfere with usual activities of daily living. Moderate: usually alleviated with additional specific therapeutic intervention. Event interfered with usual activities of daily living, causing discomfort but poses no significant or permanent risk of harm to participant. Severe: interrupted usual activities of daily living, significantly affected clinical status, or required intensive therapeutic intervention. Participants were counted once in each intensity category based on greatest intensity of unique adverse event preferred terms.
